The Talk to Me podcast continues with host Eugene Williams Jr. in a nostalgic, high-energy reunion with longtime friend and Emmy-level event producer Charlie Venturi. From MTV and the ESPYs to the London Olympics and global boat shows, Charlie shares the unexpected journey that took him from Miami classrooms to international stages. It’s a story of bold pivots, deep friendship, and what happens when you follow the spark—even when the path isn’t clear.🌟 What You’ll Learn:✅ What happens when someone trades the traditional path for a lifetime of backstage magic, world travel, and unexpected turns?✅ How do early friendships, unspoken passions, and late-blooming confidence shape the direction of a life?✅ What does it mean to chase experiences instead of stability—and how do you measure the wealth of a life like that?✅ Where does a story like Charlie’s go next—and what can we learn from someone still writing it in real time?🎤 From backstage to center stage, Charlie Venturi proves that hustle, heart, and a good hairline go a long way.💬 Join the conversation: What’s one opportunity you said yes to that changed your life?👍 Like if you believe relationships are the real résumé🔔 Subscribe for more stories of reinvention, courage, and creative leadership🌍 How to connect with Charlie Venturi:Website: https://liveit.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/liveitprodintl/?hl=enLinked-in: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlie-venturi-4a052249/🌐 How to connect with Eugene Williams, Jr.:Website: https://www.eugenewilliamsjr.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/eugwilljr/🫂 Why You Belong Here:Talk to Me isn’t just a podcast—it’s a community of storytellers, thinkers, doers, and listeners who aren’t afraid to go there.
